You need to change your exercise program frequently. I read in a book that your body can adapt to an exercise program in 3 weeks so you should change your workout every month or so.

Remember your body uses at LEAST 2000 calories a day just being alive, larger people use even more. Check out the Daily Calorie Needs Calculator under Tools on the right to work out what you are using and do some number crunching.

And thank you for the help you provide, you are truly an inspiration! I guess I should just up my exercise and then eat 1800 cals. I can exercise all I want and still only eat the 1800 cals right? God bless Thanx so much for the quick response. And thank you for the help you provide, you are truly an inspiration! I guess I should just up my exercise and then eat 1800 cals.

Nuts and healthy oils are a great way to raise your calories. If you don't eat enough protein then your body will loose muscle mass and not fat (it cant tell the difference), and by muscle mass i'm not talking about just your legs and arms, but heart and lungs etc as well. There have been a few well publicized cases of people dieing from stupidly low calorie diets ( <a href="http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1211954/Bride-crash-diet-death--eating-just-530-calories-day-11-weeks.html" rel="nofollow">most recent one</a> ). You should probably be eating at least 100-150gms of protein a day . You do need to eat at least 1800 calories, throw in more protein into your diet.

However, you said males need to eat 1800 cal a day. Too me that seems a lot? I tried working out a eating plan for myself and I included yogurt,eggs,tuna,fruit and veg during the day and my normal dinner at night and it only comes to about 1300 cal...so how am I supposed to eat then. The eating plan I worked out seems like a lot of food for me. Thanx in advance Hi there,

Instead of working out at a steady pace try interval training which involves alternating high intensity work with periods of low activity.
